James Clavell's Shogun (2024) & Shogun (1980)

I love them both. They're both great in different ways!

I have a massive crush on Richard Chamberlain so I never noticed until this rewatch just how shitty of a father-figure Archie is to Parker. Like, yeah he gave her the teaching to become the person she is and kept her from getting caught/killed when she was being a self-destructive 12-year-old but you'd think that, already having other children, he'd know she needed more than that; I guess he was too busy living a lie to understand that she needed to feel loved.

She parrots his own line back to him about not fitting in with his ""normal"" family and he's so relieved to be off the hook I guess he doesn't notice the absolute heartbreak on her face in this last shot. Yeah, she made her own family, but that doesn't mean she didn't need to feel loved and supported as a child, dude. You shouldn't have made that something she needed to do: you should have loved the child that you chose to take in and you should have given her a family, especially when you're up in here sir taking the name of our lord Cary Grant in vain.

Magnificent Musketeer Tournament

Aramis Poll 3 - Round 1

Aramis - Richard Chamberlain The Three Musketeers 1973, The Four Musketeers 1974, The Return of the Musketeers 1989

This Richard Chamberlain Aramis is the one that turned me on to Aramis as my special little man, my special little boy, I think because he is the Flounciest of the 70s musketeers and clearly the hottest. Also his entire accent is fake but really good which I think is sweet! He's got this beautiful agile grace to him and I think Aramis neeeeeds to be foxy to truly function as a character. I loved him deeply as a child and root hard for his blonde fop swag.

Aramis - Jeremy Irons The Man in the Iron Mask 1998

I just love how deeply he understands every one of his friends. He knows exactly what makes them tick, he can anticipate their every move because he just knows them so well. Also how could I (or anyone) say no to hot Priest Jeremy Irons who's tortured by the past?

Aramis - Miya Rurika All for One - D'Artagnan and the Sun King 2017

He is just here to be sexy and make that everyone's problem. (Including the audience. We were all fighting for our lives.

In this poll, the 2 Aramis entrants with the most votes will move on to the next round

Richard Chamberlain:

the image here where they’re all 4 by the well and aramis is being Pretty Boy Extraordinaire

he’s a very pretty boy :)

He's witty, delicate, and graceful. He plays beautifully off of Porthos, gets some of the best comedic beats in the film, and manages to trick some opponents into praying in the middle of a sword fight.

James Garner Vs. Richard Chamberlain

Propaganda

James Garner - (The Rockford Files, Maverick) - Just so very charming and handsome. Always seemed so laid back, but quietly in control of situations. Funny in a subtle way. Did I mention he's very handsome and charming?

Richard Chamberlain - (Dr. Kildare, Shogun, The Bourne Identity) - He’s beautiful as Dr. Kildare, and even became a teen idol because of it (60s teenagers must have really loved their medical dramas). He performed in revivals of My Fair Lady and The Sound of Music, and did a few musical films as well. He was the first Jason Bourne (the Bourne identity is called a film on Wikipedia but it originally aired as a miniseries).

A triple threat who acted in everything from musicals and medical dramas to samurai and cowboy mini-series - he had the range!! An incredibly talented actor who worked in television for decades, and was stealing hearts all the while!
